Great service!
James_J, September 2026
It was a smooth ride. Communication before the ride was great. The driver was patient and waited for us to clear customs then got us on the way safely to our destination.
Response from the operator · Groca We are immensely grateful for your appreciation of our work. We hope to welcome you back to this lovely city.

Highly disappointed
Audrey_T, September 2026
Well to begin I was never picked up. I communicated through WhatsApp as soon as I landed that I have arrived and about to go through customs. I saw that the driver saw and responded. I also communicated that I’m outside in the pickup area. No response. I waited and then I reached out again. I then proceeded to call multiple times while standing in another country being harassed. I’m super disappointed. I ended up ordering an uber. When I contacted the company regarding a refund they only sent me $6 back I paid $30.
Response from the operator · Groca Good morning. We are extremely sorry to hear about your negative experience. Your service was assigned, monitored, and communicated to you via WhatsApp, just as we do with all our clients. Unfortunately, there was a communication issue between the two of you; even though the driver was waiting outside the airport from the moment your flight landed, you were unable to connect. Recognizing that this was not your fault, we authorized a refund; however, it appears there was an error in the platform's processing. We will resolve the matter immediately and expect you to receive your full refund.
